Providence is the capital and the most populous city of the U.S. state of Rhode Island, and one of the first cities established in the United States.[3] Located in Providence County, it is the estimated second or third largest citya[›] in the New England region. Despite the city proper only having an estimated population of 175,600 as of 2009, it anchors the 36th largest metropolitan population in the country, with an estimated MSA population of 1,600,856, exceeding that of Rhode Island by about 60% due to its reaching into southern Massachusetts.[4][5][6] Situated at the mouth of the Providence River, at the head of Narragansett Bay, the city's small footprint is crisscrossed by seemingly erratic streets and contains a rapidly changing demographic.
